Zhang Desheng was startled when he heard Shi Lingheng's name.
Alas, no, as the head of the Fu family's You branch, he has always lived in the shadows. Each generation has its own camouflage, and now he has been betrayed by Shi Lingheng.
He gritted his teeth, cursing first, while muttering to himself, "Old Zhang isn't exactly a good judge of character..."
What is Ling Heng going to do to me now?
Therefore, his attitude towards Fanfu was also very subtle. He listened to Fanfu's words with a smile, but still pretended to be confused, which made Fanfu shake his head and sigh in anger, always feeling that he might have come to the wrong person.
After leaving the Zhang family's courtyard, Fan's father returned home and couldn't help but mutter to himself, "Could it be that I'm getting old and misheard the name back then?"
Meanwhile, Zhang Desheng and his father, Old Zhang, started whispering to each other: "You said Shi Lingheng was someone you could follow, but what's the point of selling me out of nowhere? The more people who know my identity, the more dangerous it becomes."
Old Zhang didn't speak, but kept his eyes closed to rest. After a long while, he slowly uttered two words: "Not necessarily..."
My son is young and impetuous; he can't calm down and think things through properly.
"That Mr. Fan might not know your identity..."
Zhang Desheng exclaimed "Eh?" It seems so. Although Mr. Fan told him about this matter, he looked suspicious. Don't think he didn't notice.
"Dad, you mean..."
Old Zhang yawned: "Son, do you really want to stay in this little mountain village for the rest of your life? Is that all you aspire to?"
"Of course not," Zhang Desheng's eyes changed, then he clenched his fist: "But when you passed on the position of the person in charge of the You branch to me, didn't you already arrange my future life?"
Old Zhang shook his head: "What thing remains unchanged forever?"
They initially thought the entire Fu family had perished, but they never expected that someone would still be alive. News here wasn't as fast as in Beidu, but the Fu family's sources of information were not to be underestimated, so they naturally knew that they still had a young master.
When Zhang Desheng found out, he was quite pleased and boasted to Old Zhang, "Oh, I held that child when he was in the village..."
That's incredibly pathetic.
Old Zhang expressed his dislike for his son.
Zhang Desheng even scolded Shi Lingheng for being too calculating, saying he must have known Fu Weidong's identity all along...
"Young Master is currently in Beidu."
Old Zhang left these words for Zhang Desheng to think about. Zhang Desheng's eyes lit up instantly. That's right, then the greatest opportunity in the future will naturally be in Beidu.
If I could stay by the young master's side, then in the future...
Oh dear, I can't think about it.
The other eleven members weren't as lucky as him. He suddenly slapped his thigh, realizing this matter had to be handled flawlessly. Oh dear, he had really wronged Shi Lingheng; he was a good person, and this was paving the way for him...
Once he realized what was happening, Zhang Desheng suddenly became as energetic as a rooster clucking in the yard.
Meanwhile, Fan's father, who was tossing and turning in bed, was restless. He kept wondering if he had found the wrong person, and that Ling Heng's words might not be right. He wondered if he should re-arrange the investigation, since he had some connections.
Thinking about it over and over, I couldn't sleep all night. The next morning, I heard the sound of a stone falling in the yard. I called out alertly, "Who's there?" and then rushed out in my clothes...
